"I found out about Flight through my friend Marbnys, who runs Kimura Jiu Jitsu in Watertown. He and several of his clients swore by it. I joined Flight Performance with two goals in mind: strength and longevity. My trainer, Magnus, and I hit it off from the start. I had worked out for years using bodybuilding-style workouts that focused more on shaping muscles than building functional strength. I looked good, but I was always stiff, slow, and felt very unathletic. I also couldn’t seem to go three weeks without some sort of self-inflicted injury due to poor form. Until I started training with Magnus at Flight Performance, I didn’t think it was possible to work out without joint pain. Simply put, I’ve had better results with my nagging shoulder injuries here than I did after several months of physical therapy. The workouts have been intense, and I feel great every time. In addition to Magnus, several other coaches oversee my training. The gym is small and cozy, and you’re never crowded or waiting around for equipment. It’s the best investment I’ve made in myself and my health in a very long time."
